NYU scientists are using light to precisely control how tiny particles organize themselves into crystals. Their research, published in Chem, provides a simple and reversible method for forming ...

A pair of identical particles swapping places sounds like a small move. In quantum physics, it is a defining one.

Accurately modeling irregularly-shaped particles isn’t easy, but a new study found a way to improve a century-old idea.

It is commonly assumed that tiny particles just go with the flow as they make their way through soil, biological tissue, and ...

A new study of carbon-based molecules in a Martian rock offers new hints about the possibility that the red planet once ...
